Paul I think it will be fine for sporting clays and as I shoot mostly 16 guage I hope I don't have to many misses, maybe that one (ok two) flyer will break a target for me....you know that golden pellet

heres some bad news... the associated press . the only lead mine in the U.S. is closing. the E.P.A. is the cause. that should be a real kick in the wallet for us shooters.

well, its a smelter that is closing, not a mine, was announced a while ago

i expect most of our lead now comes from China - where they don't have an EPA, or an environment

I did read the hole story and if they are not refining ore why mine it. I have never seen any bags of shot with MADE IN CHINA on them, all of my bags of shot say made in the USA on them
